I was reading Stu's piece on the 5.0 swap. He talked about swapping out the EFI to go carburated. Here's the quote-
"It was an easy swap and the only real change that was needed was to have the emissions pipe that ran between the rear of each cylinder head eliminated. I took the heads to my local machine shop and had the holes in each head properly threaded and plugged."
Was this for the efi/carb swap or for the EGR? I know that I need to change out the stock intake manifold, but I'm sure that there are other "smog" issues that need dealing with. What else should I be looking for. I wondering if some of my performance issues are because half of the EGR stuff is gone and the other half is limping along causing problems.
